Manzanita Lake Campground seemed to be overall well regulated. There is a camp store and shower.
Loop D is tent only, so much less RV generator noises.
Unfortunately, camp site D7 is close to the rest rooms and one of the bathroom door makes a very loud noise when it shut itself close. It is hard to sleep in the middle of the night when people uses restrooms.

The campground is large and has amazing tree cover. We weren't quite sure where our tent should go as the spots are really close together and there wasn't a designated area for the tent. The bear lockers worked great, but one thing to note is that each loop shares one bathroom facility. The campground was pretty loud with lots of families but overall a great spot.

The maintenance crews were out every day and did a commendable job of keeping a busy campground well cared for. I know, unfortunately, that long term maintenance issues have been underfunded for years. That makes me all the more appreciative of the work your people do to provide a good experience.

Policies & Rules
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
